I haven't blogged in a day or two thanks to too much day job and the mother of all colds. Blech.
But I haven't forgotten my literary doodle for this Friday. I engaged in a little experiment and discovered a few things.
First, translating really makes you think about the meaning behind words and not just the words themselves. Second, LOLCATZ just won't fit into iambic pentameter.
Yes.
I have kittehed Shakespeare.
Hope you enjoy. KTHXBAI.
(With apologies to William)

I wish I could help out with your formatting problems; bloggity software can be frustrating on the editing front.
And I hope you feel better soon!
I just had a thought on formatting.
Put double-returns between your paragraphs (but keep the single-return for the poetry).
Maybe that will help?
The formatting's not so bad. I wouldn't worry about it. iz tasty AND nutrishoos!

Love the poem. I'm sure Old Will is not spinning in his grave, but perchance is smiling with delight at your wit.
Where were you when I was taking English in high school? I would have much preferred to write papers about your version of Shakespeare.
Ohhh, that is just what I needed! Too funny. :)
